Musician in Residence

Springer hosted ethnomusicologist Dr. Craig Woodson for its 20th Norita Aplin Musician in Residence program in December. Dr. Woodson met with all classes, and led the students in making their own instruments from common materials. He also worked with a small group of Intermediate students who built African talking drums and played at the Winter Assembly on December 16.

"We had been contributing to a college fund for Avi, but by the end of fourth grade we realized that if something didn’t change, we would never need that money. We had a complete educational assessment done, and when Avi heard the diagnoses of dyslexia, dyscalculia and ADHD, she cried tears of relief. Now we had something we could work with!” - Tiphanie, parent of 2016 Springer graduate
